270-300 / 1000+ results research Single-cell analysis of basal cell carcinoma reveals heat shock proteins promote tumor growth in response to WNT5A-mediated inflammatory signals
Heat shock proteins help basal cell carcinoma grow by responding to inflammation signals.
research Human basal cell carcinoma: the induction of anagen hair follicle differentiation
Basal cell carcinomas may differentiate similarly to hair follicles and could be influenced by hair cycle-related treatments.

cGEL hydrogel improves melanin production in skin cells, making it a promising option for skin treatments.
research Melanocyte stem cells in the skin: Origin, biological characteristics, homeostatic maintenance and therapeutic potential
Melanocyte stem cells are vital for skin and hair color and have potential in treating skin disorders and cancer.
research Unique Tumor Heterogeneity Within a Single Locally Advanced Basal Cell Carcinoma Resulting in Partial Response Despite Continuous Vismodegib Treatment
Different tumor cells in one basal cell carcinoma can cause mixed treatment responses, suggesting personalized treatment is needed.
research 277 HPV8 E6 induced STAT3 activation leads to hair follicle junctional zone keratinocyte stem cell proliferation and expansion in actinic keratoses
HPV8 causes hair follicle stem cells to grow, leading to skin lesions.
research Giant pigmented tumour of the scalp—a diffuse neurofibroma or a congenital naevus showing neurofibromatous changes? Immunohistochemical and electron microscopic studies
The tumor likely shows dual neural crest differentiation.
research Mommy — where do tumors come from?
Some skin tumors may start from hair follicle stem cells.
research Scalp Melanoma: A High-Risk Subset of Cutaneous Head and Neck Melanomas with Distinctive Clinicopathological Features
Scalp melanomas are more dangerous and likely to recur or cause death than other head and neck melanomas.
research Alopecia neoplastica simulating alopecia areata and antedating the detection of primary breast carcinoma
A woman's hair loss was initially mistaken for a common hair loss condition but was later found to be caused by breast cancer cells in her scalp.
research Expression patterns of MITF during human cutaneous embryogenesis: evidence for bulge epithelial expression and persistence of dermal melanoblasts
Melanocyte precursors in human fetal skin follow a specific migration pattern and some remain in the skin's deeper layers.
research Endothelin-1 combined with extracellular matrix proteins promotes the adhesion and chemotaxis of amelanotic melanocytes from human hair follicles in vitro
Endothelin-1 helps amelanotic melanocytes stick and move better on certain proteins.
research Differentiation of the basal cell epithelioma-like changes overlying dermatofibroma.
Basal cell epithelioma-like changes are most similar to normal basal cells.
